Oral Plus is a hyper-dental solution. It will bring more comprehensive care for users. It is easy to use and it brings convenience and new user experience, helping in the development of good oral habits. Meanwhile, it finds a good balance between aesthetic and functions.



Oral Plus is one of my studio project when I studied in SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design). Some of my family and friends are suffering the dental issue. That is the trigger of this topic. Base on my research, I found most people usually think oral care is a boring daily routine and do not give enough care for their teeth. Due to lack of knowledge and good habits, eventually gave rise to long-term accumulation of problems. So I want to use this design to provide a new oral care experience and help user to form a good habits.


Base on the insights from the research phase, I started several round sketches to come up with different solutions and made the rapid mockup to test some potential ideas. Then I studied the mechanism, form, tune and color for the chosen idea, after that I conducted the 3D modeling and rendering by using the Pro-engineering after was Keyshot, and then finished the final prototype with a 3D print machine.


We are easy to overlook the common things around us. However, it is a great opportunity to rethink these everyday things and make our life better. In this project, I learned a lot from observing people's behavior and diving deeply to find the best solution.

I have 8 years of experience working as an industrial designer in China. Now, I would like to explore an opportunity that would allow me to apply my education at SCAD and utilize my cross-border experience.
